The Proof is in the Mask

Polling data? We have quite a few to choose from. Gallup. Rasmussen. Zogby. Many more - they are legion and varied. But do you wish to know of one that has invariably called it correctly in every election year?

Check this one out! People who buy Halloween masks in Election Years intuitively know which one to purchase. Mass consumer consciousness has proved infallible the past quarter century. Forget the Weekly Reader poll!

Year Winner Loser

1980 Reagan = 60% Carter = 40%
1984 Reagan = 68% Mondale = 32%
1988 Bush = 62% Dukakis = 38%
1992 Clinton = 41% Bush 39%
1996 Clinton = 56% Dole = 40%
2000 Bush = 57% Gore = 43%

And this year . . . (place your guess):

So far . . . Bush 56% Kerry 44% !!!!!!!!!

Thanks, Shot In The Dark blog. As he points out, the consumers involved in this 'poll' didn't just spout off at the mouth, they put their money down.
